mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.1-rc1 commit d0d51a97063db4704a5ef6bc978dddab1636a306 category: bugfix bugzilla: 187884,https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I5X2OB CVE: CVE-2022-3646
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
--------------------------------
If nilfs_attach_log_writer() failed to create a log writer thread, it frees a data structure of the log writer without any cleanup. After commit e912a5b66837 ("nilfs2: use root object to get ifile"), this causes a leak of struct nilfs_root, which started to leak an ifile metadata inode and a kobject on that struct.
In addition, if the kernel is booted with panic_on_warn, the above ifile metadata inode leak will cause the following panic when the nilfs2 kernel module is removed:

This patch fixes these issues by calling nilfs_detach_log_writer() cleanup function if spawning the log writer thread fails.
